 Help Control Mosquitoes that Spread
Dengue, Chikungunya, and Zika Viruses

B ZZZ Z.
Aside from being itchy and annoying, the bite of an infected female
mosquito (Aedes aegypti or Aedes albopictus) can spread dengue,
chikungunya, or Zika viruses. People become infected with dengue, Put plants in soil, not in water.
chikungunya, or Zika after being bitten by an infected mosquito.

Female mosquitoes lay several hundred eggs on the walls of water-

filled containers. Eggs stick to containers like glue and remain
attached until they are scrubbed off. When water covers the eggs,
they hatch and become adults in about a week.
Adult mosquitoes live inside and outside.
They prefer to bite during the day.
Drain water from pools when not in use.
A few infected mosquitoes can produce large outbreaks in a
community and put your family at risk of becoming sick.

Protect Yourself, Your Family, and Community

from Mosquitoes

1.
Eliminate standing water in and around your home:
Once a week, empty and scrub, turn over, cover, or
throw out items that hold water, such as tires, buckets, Recycle used tires or keep them protected from rain.

planters, toys, pools, birdbaths, flowerpots, or trash

containers. Check inside and outside your home.
Tightly cover water storage containers (buckets,
cisterns, rain barrels) so that mosquitoes cannot get
inside to lay eggs.
For containers without lids, use wire mesh with holes
smaller than an adult mosquito.

2.
If you have a septic tank, follow these steps: Drain & dump any standing water.

Repair cracks or gaps.

Cover open vent or plumbing pipes. Use wire mesh
with holes smaller than an adult mosquito.

3. Keep mosquitoes out of your home:

Use screens on windows and doors.
Repair holes in screens. Weekly, scrub vases & containers to remove mosquito eggs.

Use air conditioning when available.
